Covering an area of 93 square kilometers, Liuheng Island is the third largest island in the Zhoushan Archipelago, following Zhoushan Island and Daishan Island. Agriculture on the island is well-developed. With a moderate and humid climate year-round, and abundant rainfall, it is suitable for growing crops such as sweet potatoes, corn, and cassava, particularly sweet potatoes which are known for their high yield and fame in Zhoushan.
Before the Yuan Dynasty, Liuheng Island was known as Huanggong Mountain, and its name was changed to Liuheng Island starting from the Ming Dynasty. The island has six ridges running from southeast to northwest, resembling snakes. Locals refer to them as ‘heng’, hence the name ‘Liuheng’.
